Prospect Place was the home of the George Willison Adams family of Dresden, Ohio, in the 19th & 20th centuries. This 29 room structure is currently in the process of being restored. In the 1850s and 1860s the house was a station on the “Underground Railroad”. Although a few fine homes remain in Dresden from this era, Prospect Place is the last remaining Dresden area mansion, (There were five: Prospect Place, River Dale, Mulberry Grove, Maple Hollow and Elm Grove), the others have met the fate of time and neglect and are no more. These were the homes of the “Lord’s of the Valley”, men of great influence and wealth who helped tame a new land and create a community. We are restoring this home as a memorial to times gone by and to give the Dresden area back a piece of an ever-vanishing history.
